Four Years Ago
Day 2
The party is over at 109 comments.
We'll be back later today to announce the winner!
Yes, I'm very late today. I'm terribly sorry I took my hubby, aka Mr Daze to breakfast this morning. :-) It's very important to keep him happy - he works very hard to keep me happy!
*
Here we are ready to party again. WooHoo!! Thank you for playing yesterday - I enjoyed reading your guesses. :-)
It's been super hot this week here on the Surface of the Sun - 109 degrees - ugh! I've been searching for refreshing, thirst quenching drinks. There's been ice cold bottled water, ice cold caffeine free diet coke and ice cold sweet tea but one of my favorite refreshing drinks can be found at The Red Robin - it's called Freckled Lemonade aka Strawberry Lemonade. Lemonade with chunks of strawberries and crushed ice - YUM!!! Serious YUM!*
So, to quench your thirst for some fun fabrics today's prize is called Strawberry Lemonade by Me & My Sister Designs for Moda - there are 39 pieces ( cut approx 10" x 18") + a panel.
*
Let me toss your name in the proverbial hat by telling me what you would do with these cuties if you won. See easy peasy - no guessing game this time. LOL
I'm looking forward to your comments about this sweet prints.*
Reminder - I'll announce the winners of all four prizes on Tuesday, June 15th.
*
See you tomorrow for Day #3, Game #3 & Prize #3

In Friendship!

Honestly? And I'm NOT just saying this to suck up either...
I's make a second of you "Between Friends" quilts! The fabric would be perfect!
Oh gosh...I spy another "someday" grandbaby quilt that would be awesome in these fun colors!!
I have a little niece who would love a quilt made out of these pretty prints!!
Good thing to keep hubby happy! LOL These fabrics are beautiful! I'd make a quilt for my daughter with them (I still owe her one)! Thanks for the giveaway! :0)
Those fabrics are so colorful & cheery....I'm loving all the pinwheel quilts i've seen in blogland lately so maybe something with pinwheels or whirlygigs :)
Smiles, DianeM :)
I want to make a sommerquilt to my new arbour..The fabrics are beatiful.
These fabrics are so cute! I have a multitude - literally - of nieces to choose from to make a sweet little quilt for. Or maybe little purses for all of them?! Or little notebook covers?
Perfect for a summertime quilted picnic tablecloth - too too pretty fabric !
what a dear husband you have !
Yummy! I would have a hard time giving it up, but I think I would make a quilt for my granddaughter, and if there's any left over, I can envision some placemats for my table!
Oh, I love the Me and My Sister girls and their fabric. I would make a "happy" quilt that would make me smile with all those happy colors.
I LOVE this fabric! It works really well as a table topper on the furniture on the deck! Set your ice cold strawberry lemonade glass on it and enjoy!
i've been looking for the perfect fabrics to start a girly applique quilt...those would be perfect!
*fingers crossed*
Gorgeous fabrics!! I'd use them to make a cute girlie quilt for my grand-daughter!
Like most, a quilt for a little girl,or maybe for the little girl in me! Love the fabrics!
I would make a quilt to cover a wooden picnic table. it would double as a picnic blanket when a table couldn't be found.
Oh, yummmmmmy!!! Those fabrics just shout summer - so how about a picnic quilt (the roll-up type complete with ribbons and rock pockets), a basket ruffle/cover and some napkins?? Oh, I can picture it now - sigh ;o)
Cute fabrics! I'd make summery table/picnic items... that is if my DD didn't swipe them straight away for a picnic blanket. :-) Thanks for the fun!
yum that sounds good.
we just had three baby girls born into our family a few weeks ago, this would make some super cute quilts!
I'm not sure what I'd make but it'd be happy and for at least one little girl!
Well I am in need of a baby girl quilt in July and these would make a wonderful quilt for her.
Oh my... I could see a disappearing 9 -patch baby quilt in all of this. I love the fabrics!!!
Thanks so much for hosting!
I would make a quilt for my daughter out of this fabric if I win it. Such fun colors.
Oh I love the fabric...I din't ahv tot hik twic.. I would make another Blossom Time from the Pam and Nicky Lintott Layer and Jelly Roll
I would make a quilt for my great grand-daughter.
Beautiful fabric! I would make my granddaughter who's 6th birthday is coming up a cute little quilt and a matching doll quilt. She would love this - pink is her favorite color. I'm definitely doing my quilting grandma duties because I've already got her hooked on chocolate and fabric!
Happy Blogversary!

STRAWBERRY LEMONADE,ISN'T THAT SWEET?
I WANT TO MAKE A BRIGHT QUILTED THROW FOR MY PORCH. THANKS FOR SHARING,LINDA

Don't you just love those new FE's precuts? I love them!! sometimes the FQ bundles are just too much and these just fit the bill. I have a cousin that is having a baby Girl in September and I've been looking for the perfect fabric. If I won, I would make that little critter a quilt.
I think I'm needing a trip to Red Robin!
I would put these fabrics with the lonely charm pack of this line that I have to make a Schnibbles to brighten our kitchen nook. Then I could also have enough to do make matching placemats. How cute would does that sound?
I think it needs a pattern that uses large bits of fabric since some of the fabrics are larger prints - maybe some snowball blocks and nine patches.
This would make a cute baby quilt and a fun table runner.
I would make a coin baby quilt for a friend expecting baby #8 : )
Lets see, the perfect quilt pattern mmmm, I would design my own.
I would use it to make the Buggy Barn posey quilt. The bright happy colors would be just perfect!

I think I would make a cute wall hanging for my daughter's bedroom. These are all her favorite colors. She is 6 and the last quilt I made for her hasn't been quilted yet, because it is a bed quilt and she takes markers to bed at night. If I made her a wall quilt, it would be something she could put on her wall and I wouldn't have to fear her falling asleep with a marker in her bed.
If I won this delightful bundle I think I would make the BIG Between Friends quilt...Wouldn't it be cute? :') Take care and thanks for the chance!!
Paulette
Definitely a quilt for a sweet little girl. I am really liking Kaaren's suggestions. I also thought about doing the hourglass block with them.
A quilt or a big market bag. Hubby and I got out of the valley today and headed up to Payson.
Love the fabric, I would make a quilt for my sweet 2 year old grand daughter. Her mummy and daddy are building their first home and it would look lovely in her first grown up bedroom
Gorgeous fabrics Darlene.....add some white fabric and maybe do whirly gigs...such lovely bright fabrics...
Ooooo...they'd make an awesome pinwheel quilt triangles...or a diamonds quilt maybe. So many choices!
I'd make a quilt for my adorable granddaughter - I'd tell you what pattern but sadly I'm separated from my cross-stitch magazines at the moment by about 900 miles!!! Does that get me a sympathy vote? ;-)
mmm - I think a summery Row quilt would be fun. Naturally, a row of flowers, row of quirky houses, maybe some appliqued critters, sunshines, trees, summer veggies, a row of kids holding hands, and ??? ... that is, if I won them. 8-)))
I love it Strawberry Lemonade quilt would be prefect for the Schnibbles patterns. I just got my book in the mail yesterday. I was very excited to see your name in there. I can tell my friends that you are also my "friend". Fun giveaway.
that would make a wonderful charity quilt for Shriners Hospital..
These would be great in a half-square triangle pattern. I've been admiring the Lady of the Lake pattern. Thanks for the chance!
Oh those fun fabrics would look great in a table topper and/or placemats and napkins too!
What a fun line! I don't have any girls in our family but I would have to find a pattern to make a quilt. I would donate it to a charity that I've been with for the past 11 years - Log-A-Load for Kids. The logging community in our county raise money for the Arkansas Children Hospital.
Beautiful fabric. I would love to make a nice summery kitchen table topper. Thanks for the give-away!
I would most definitely make my very first grandchild, Melanie, who is now three weeks old a quilt. There would be enough to make a dolly quilt and a backpack when she gets a little older. Being a grandma is so much fun!
There's a baby gonna be born to my cousin and his wife late this year. These fabrics would make a darling welcome baby quilt. It could be two sided with the panel on the front and some patchwork on the back (or vice versa)! My brother and his family live in Scottsdale so have felt the same as you---so hot already!
I would have left a guess for yesterday's prize, but I already have one of those magnetic pincushions! (156!)
If I won those fabrics, I would be using them for some of the blocks in Bloomin' Workshop's Flying Geese quilt-a-long (http://tinyurl.com/34b557y) I've collected a few brights for it so far, but they are not my usual fabrics (my usuals being 1930s reproductions & civil war repros).
I think I would make pinwheels the size of those adorable panels, and alternate to make a throw!
Your summer cooler sounds scrumptious. Lovely fabrics, I think something summery like a picnic quilt or picnic table cloth.
Adorable fabric...I could so see this as a girl quilt. I have a few nieces then there is always friends with little girls that would love this. Thanks for such a great giveway:)
This would make a perfect quilt for my goddaughter.
I would use the fabric to make table covers. It is so cheerful that I would want to see it. I would do a runner, a square cover, and as many placemats as I could. Thanks Darlene.
Oh wow I would love to make your pattern with those fabrics for our new house :-)))
Not sure of the pattern I'd use, but it would make a wonderful little girl quilt. I have 3 granddaughters. Winona
Well, for a while I would just look at it and admire it, and gloat about it on my blog!
And then I would start making comfort quilts for the pediatric sexual assault centre. The colours are perfect for these quilts!
Hmmm, I particularly like the stripes in this line, so would probably try to pair those with the larger prints in the line in order to showcase those and then work in the other prints where I could. Better yet, I'd find an existing pattern that would work nicely for these prints, like maybe the X-Rated pattern in the Schnibble Times 2 book.
The fabrics are just what I have been looking for, for a baby quilt I need to make, I'm sure I can hear the fabrics calling my name...
these would be perfect in a quilt for my friend!
Thanks for the give away!

I think these fabrics would make a cute baby quilt. I'd like to experiment with Texture Magic using these prints! dsb448@att.net
what fun fabrics, I know 3 little girls who would love something made from these.
If I won those, I would turn them into two quilts for Project Linus. I love Me & My Sisters fabrics.
Does it count to use it as a pretty stack on a shelf for a wee little time? It's such a sweet stack of colors~!
:-} pokey
I would make a quilt for my daughter's bed!
kjp37@hotmail.com
I'd make a quilt for the very next grandbaby or great niece or nephew. I can't wait.
I'd use the fabric to make a Schnibbles Quilt!
Kathy
Those would make a great summer table topper - for inside or outside on the patio!
Oh I do love this set bunches! It seriously looks like a disappearing 9 patch to me! Elaine
Oh that would make such a pretty summer quilt for the porch. I love the fresh colors - and now I want to go to Red Robin just to get a drink!
Honestly I see a quilt as a table cloth for a summer party. Use the extras to make napkins.....
I would make the perfect quilt to celebrate my daughter moving back to Minnesota. Anything with strawberries reminds me of her..she had a Strawberry Shortcake tricycle when she was little.
Strawberry Lemonade I am also in love with. The fabric looks like strawberry lemonade also. A quilt for my Great niece she would love this material.
This would make the perfect fabic for my 4 year old Granddaughter Luca to make her 2nd pieced quilt top. Yes , I said 2nd and she is only 4! Guess I sound like a proud
grandmother and I am!!
The fabric is great!!!
cute! I'd probably make the little girl in my life a lil sumpin sumpin for her birthday next month, this would match her room colors perfectly :) xoxo mel
I hate guessing games. DH is always saying, "Guess how much (many)..."
I refuse to play. This one is easy. I would make the Merry Go Round quilt by American Jane. It is so much fun.
Oh my gosh, I have been searching high and low for these fabrics since I used up the last of my charm packs on the charity quilt I made for Margaret's Hope chest last year.
I would use them to make my new little baby cousin a pretty girly quilt ☺
I don't envy your heat there. I'm dreading already this summer. Last year got to be about 112 here in So Cal. Yuck!
I would have to cut into the panel and use the blocks as centers to a star. I would have an extremely difficult time keeping my daughter from stealing it before it was finished. C.U.T.E :0)
I have a very overdue baby quilt to make that they would be perfect for~
The fabric would be perfect for a summertime quilt, or even for a baby quilt (which I have to make for next month....),
Jutta
I know exactly what to do. My niece just gave birth to a princess and old aunti has to make a quilt for the new princess in the family. This looks like fabrics for a new born princess :)
I'd make a nine-patch but I'm not sure I could give it up. Love that fabric!
Love strawberries and love lemonade. Will have to stop at Red Robin to try their drink.
I just received an e-mail that a friend's daughter just gave birth to their first granddaughter. This has been an especially difficult pregnancy, but after two boys they dearly wanted a girl. Your fabrics from Me and My Sister (love their designs) would make a cheery girl baby quilt.
Thanks for the opportunity! Enjoy your weekend!
How cute those fabrics are!! I think I would make pinwheels. Sweet! Thanks!
These are beautiful. I've been asked to make bigger quilts - bed sized ones - gulp! - and these would be a nice start to a Between Friends quilt.
I would make a beautiful quilt out of it...I love pinks.
How lovely of you to give it away!
Micki
I love this, it would be a nice quilt for my little niece! Greetings from Slovakia :-)
Strawbery lemondade sounds yummy! And miss Elizabeth will be in a big girl bed before I know it and so she will be needing a new quilt.
Nice bundle! I don't normally buy pure colored fabric since I tend to drift towards the muted and toned down colors, so I do need some stash equalizers for when I need to make a baby quilt or something for children. I now have (almost)10 grandbabies all under six...so lots of projects in my future. One thing I'd like to make is an activity book that will help keep them occupied in church...services can be so long for child so I think some of those prints would work on different pages...
Newest great nephew due....October 9! Wouldn't that make a perfect quilt for him? I think so. :) blessings, marlene
I'd make a pinwheel quilt with those gorgeous fabrics and would probably keep the panel for the backing.
Happy blog anniversary Darlene. Super cute fabrics. I'd make a girlie quilt, not sure the pattern/block but it would look really cute with pinwheels.
What a great contest you are running. Happy blogiversary. If I won the fabric I would make a baby quilt and donate to a local shelter for homeless and pregnant women.
These would make a perfect quilt for my little niece!!!
Oh, Darlene! I love that line! I'd make a darling quilt for my darling granddaughter, Charlotte. She turns 5 years old today.!
I have been looking for fabric for the Between Friends quilt. This just might be it!
I would use the fabric for a Schnibbles Times Two quilt.
I have a grand baby due in Nov. I think that is would make a sweet quilt for the new little one.
I would love them! GRIN. There is a Rosie book called Spice of Life that I would buy and use this fabric. The cover photo is calling me.
Oh so many ideas come to mind..But at the tope would be a table setting for summer. A table runner, placemats, breadcovers, napkins etc! :)
Send us some of your heat! We are still wearing winter clothes here! We get a day of nice weather followed by a week of cold rainy weather! Yuk! Not much summer here yet!
I would use those yummy fabrics for a quilt in one of Atkinson Designs' books like the Shoebox quilt. I love Terry's designs and this quilt has been on my "to do" list for some time now.
I would peice those together for a new kichen curtain. I can just see those pretty summer prints brightening up the windows.
Ah!! These are so cute!!!! I would make a wonderful quilt with these. My daughter would just love them. She would love to make a quilt together using them. Thanks for the chance to win.
Hugs Ariane
Not sure what pattern I would use, but these fabrics would make a great quilt to display during summer. Thanks for the chance.
I have no idea, it looks like a little girl's quilt, with lots of white. Maybe pinwheels, I love those.
